this is how it works
Week one of Fall '07 is almost over. Two more classes then a few hours of work and I can RELAX. Yesssss.
I have to write a couple of paragraphs about why I want to be an English major and then show them to my advisor. Would it be too trite to say that I'm intrinsically motivated to be an English major by the awesome experience of analyzing literature/poetry? Cause I am. I mean, really. I'm not choosing this major so I can go conquer the world or make lots of money or anything. I can't even say that I'm particularly skilled at it. I just really like literature.
Four permutations of a four-year plan are enough, right? Hopefully one of them will work out. Especially since study-abroad things are kind of up in the air at the moment. It'd be nice of the OCS man were kind and understanding and was like "sure do whatever the hell you want" when I go to see him on Monday.
So clearly a lot of my stressors (I don't know if that's a word or not) are related to the future/academia. Sometimes I really do want to just be like "Okay I'm dropping all my activities outside of classes" so I can just have more time to live in the moment and not be such a Bisy Backson. But then I think I'd probably get bored because everyone else would be off at their activities while I sat in my room listening to music . . . Actually that doesn't sound so bad. But I should work and stuff. Blaaaah money-driven society.
I want to get a lot of sleep this weekend.
